Better known today as the developer of Skyrim and Fallout, Bethesda once had a well-respected racing game franchise and were deep into development of a licensed Skip Barber Racing title that never released.
As a direct ancestor of iRacing, the ‘Grand Prix Legends engine’ had multiple stock car racing false starts, before eventually releasing as NASCAR Racing 4. The original NASCAR 3, cancelled and replaced by one that used NASCAR 2’s engine, is barely remembered.
Both NASCAR Racing 2003 Season and NR2002 require a PowerPC system from around the time of their release, but will both run fine on an Intel CPU Mac running a version of Mac OS with built-in Rosetta emulator such as Mac OS X Snow Leopard. You cannot install Snow Leopard on a very recent machine though and Apple have removed Rosetta from later versions of the OS, so unless you use virtualization software such as Parallels it’s basically impossible to run NR2003 on a recent system without Windows.
